RE: [21.4] Enable win32 filenames under cygwin
Could you clarify exactly what this means? Do you mean that "find-file"
will understand "c:/dir/file" (or even "c:\dir\file") and do
completion on
it, and still allow the same behavior for Unix-like paths? If so, this will
be very nice.

Subject: [21.4] Enable win32 filenames under cygwin
DDE support under cygwin is only partially functional because the cygwin
build doesn't understand win32 paths. This patch fixes it by selectively
enabling the win32 filename support whilst preserving the cygwin (UNIX)
semantic support. There is no new code here so I would like for this to go
into 21.4 since it fixes an actual bug and I want the netinstaller to do DDE
setup.
